Is it possible to brighten this photo?  It is very small and so hard to see clearly

It's much more fun to work on other's photos - It's just more like "WORK" to work on your own.

Well, someone here appreciates your hard work, thank you again, it is amazing what a difference removing the "fog" from a photograph makes
